Re: [cobalt-users] no mail reaching any alias

["Richard Green" <rgreen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ian,
I am having the same problem. However, as far as I can tell it is affecting
every domain on the server.  You mention that if you setup the catch-all
without the www mail is received. A patch for the raq2 came out about a year
ago that wouldn't allow a catch-all without the www.

I tried setting a catch-all for domains without the www on both the raq2 and
raq3 and neither would allow me. Since I've been trying to track this down
for 3 days my customers would be happy if they recieved any mail in any box
right now.

I posted a question earlier, I know the problem has something to do with the
virtusertable. I called Cobalt this morning and sometime this evening they
repaired this file and restarted the mail server. But whatever they did, did
not fix the problem.
